We started on Earth, a small planet, really, in a small galaxy that no-one had ever heard of before. Then, when the Earth died, humans moved away. Some boarded the space-carriers bound for the colonies on Mars, others took the long-haul to another galaxy entirely, where a planet so similar to Earth had been found that they started calling it "New Earth." Both of those expeditions were apparently short-lived. Mars didn 't sustain life nearly as long as had been projected, and New Earth suffered a similar
The Earth was hit more often than the Moon, however, because Earth is larger and has more gravity. This increased gravity also caused the impactors to be accelerated to higher velocities towards the Earth. That must have been a catastrophic time to be here. So many bombardments would have sterilized the planet. If life had appeared before this period, it would have been extinguished unless it found a way to retreat into niches where it could be protected from these global catastrophes. When some
a planet which lies between Earth and Mars that remains unknown to the humans on Earth. It is possible that this planet exists in a blind spot of Earth, prohibiting the humans from seeing it. This planet is known as Crasius, and its inhabitants are referred to as Crasiens. It is still a mystery how the moon was formed. While there are a few theories, new studies support the theory that states the moon was formed from debris from a collision between the planet Earth and a rock which is thought to
The Earth’s magnetic field The discovery of the Earth’s magnetic field Over 2000 years ago, the Chinese discovered that lodestone, a naturally magnetised iron ore, would align itself in a north-south direction. Hundreds of years later, they discovered that their “compasses” didn’t point true north and in fact that this position changed with time. The compass was first used for navigation in the 11th-12th century, only arriving in Europe towards the end of this period. Then, in 1600, William
make any discoveries and the people of today had to start without any prior knowledge. In about 500BC the ancient Greeks had an explosion of astronomical discoveries. The ancient Greeks wanted to know the answer to one big question; how does the universe work? The ancient Greeks contributed to astronomy through the discoveries about Earth, the universe, and the tools they used. The ancient Greeks contributed to astronomy through their discoveries about Earth. The first discovery about Earth is that
or alien life exists. The discovery may not be in the near future, but it is more than likely to happen. Someday we might be able to identify a planet and say that it is just like Earth. Finding life outside of Earth is within reach. Extraterrestrial life is not a myth and there are many reasons why such as evidence from National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), discovery of Earth-like planets that orbit a sunlike star, and discoveries on planets closer to Earth. Many scientists believe
origin, history, and structure of the earth. Fossils are dead plants and animals that were preserved in sedimentary rock or other crust component in the earth throughout the years and they are very important to discovery the types of animals and plants that lived in the earth, their ancestors and how they have changed over time, we can know a lot by analyzing a fossil. In the middle ages the philosopher Aristotle started thinking that some of the compositions in earth changes in a slow rate that was
First, we can find a ways to protect the earth. Second, we can have more discoveries. Finally, to find more resources. One of the reasons I think that NASA should fund asteroid studies to protect the earth. There are many reasons to protect the earth and one of them is from asteroids. When asteroids hit the earth it destroys that part of the earth and damages it. With studying the asteroid we can maybe find way to make them not crash into the earth. If we were to find a way to make them
beginning of the human existence, research has been conducted leading to major discoveries. These discoveries are the tiniest aspects of our surroundings, but seem huge to mankind and our existence. Therefore, the race into space changed the course of history, from the first step on the moon, space exploration has flourished, triggering immense curiosity for ongoing discoveries. Space exploration is the ongoing discovery and exploration of celestial structures in outer space by means of continuously
or isolated from others” (“Alone”). Individuals can be alone, but the Earth is a little less clear. Whether the Earth is alone in having the ability to sustain life or if there is more out there in the vast darkness of space is a huge mystery. The possibility of life beyond the green planet is highly debated. The debate is held within scientific communities as well as the public. However mathematically, existence on Earth being the only source of life in the universe is incredibly slim. Organizations
